In a similar report by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2017, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death and the second most common cancer among both men and women in the United States.

There are various causes responsible for this condition, such as rising aging population, unhealthy diet, low physical activities, etc. According to a research, smoking increases the possibility of lung cancer; more than 60% of the global population smokes, this has increased the risk of lung cancer and contributed to the growth of the market.

Moreover, advancing technology in medical devices is adding fuel to the growth of the market. Furthermore, increasing government support for the developing countries also drives the market growth.

However, availability of expensive treatment and poor reimbursement policies in the developing regions of the world are some of the factors, which may hamper the market growth during the forecast period.
